 Hey guys, Shave Air 1000 here. Let's see what's wrong with this craftsman. 18 inch 40 cc chainsaw. It'll start up, rev up a couple times, and stall. Let's check it out together. Like I mentioned, I put a new primer bulb in a few lines and filter in this. I don't know if I filmed that or not. It starts right up every time. Rev it up a few times, and then it stalls. Like it's out of fuel. Some suspecting that diaphragm is bad in this carburetor. So what we're going to do, we're going to change a diaphragm in this carburetor. I have a new one over here, and I'll show you what's going on with them. I don't know if I filmed this one or not, but anyway, let's get you down here where you guys can see something. I'll try not to get in your way too bad. First thing we're going to do, we're going to take these two nuts off here. I've already, I've already, as you can see, you know, I've already took the top off. Save a little time. It's only three screws. So we're also, what we're going to do is we're going to strip this carburetor down. We're going to put it in the carburetor cleaner, which I have finished straining. I strained it out twice. I strained it out with an old cutoff piece of of a pillowcase here, and then I strain it with coffee filter. So it's I'm just going to take that off of there. There's the carburetor. All right. Make note of where the lines are. That line goes up in there. Short line goes right there. So let's go ahead and take that off. The bottom line off here. Pull the choke up off. This is how the throttle hooks on. Just got like that. Just goes on. I usually take the bars off these things so they're easier to work on here. I'll show you this real quick. Hey, let's take it. See? Just like that. All right. Now we can move this out of the way. We're done with this. So let me just set this over here. Right under here is that diaphragm. I think I've showed you those before. But we're going to go ahead and we're going to do the whole. We need to get this choke thing off of here, but first we need to see how it goes. We got the choke off. We're going to be, this time we're going to be taking these out. It takes a special little screwdriver that if you read on the forums, there's people saying you can't get them. You can't get those. You can't order them. I didn't have a fucking problem. I got 10 of them for nine bucks. So 15 of these diaphragms which will do anything I'm doing on these car breakers. Yours may look a little different, but it'll be fine. Trust me. I got 15 of those for seven bucks, but I went ahead and paid a little extra to have them here today. I ordered them Sunday. I got them here today. It's Wednesday. They were here at about 11 30 this morning. And that was coming through snail mail, believe it or not. Okay, so I've got my little tool pile right here next to me. Let's go ahead. I just want to check this out. Okay, let's make sure. Okay, see this tab here? I've never seen one with these. One of these on here before, but that's okay. It goes Remember remind me guys it goes towards the adjusting Screws there. They're actually called mixture screws for low and high speed and these These you can use a Phillips a Phillips head or a small straight standard head Which this one's too big of course, but you get the idea I'm gonna put the small one. I thought I had it out here, but apparently I don't. Yeah, I see I'm getting fuel out of here So I'm guessing it wasn't it was kind of like your Your float in a regular carburetor being stuck which are stuck up which would be Closing off fuel That doesn't feel That bad really does So I might just get by with cleaning. See that's nice and firm now. I'll show you this before guys I'll show you again. See here's an old one See how that Shouldn't do that. Well, here's a new one See how flimsy that is? say that Just like Just like a piece of cloth or something and this one's just That's what they get like now this so This feels pretty good. It's how pliable that is could be could have a problem Getting fuel after this so we're gonna go ahead and soak it for a couple hours and it is kind of It's kind of goofy a little bit, but I mean that's enough for it to work But since I have the new ones I am gonna put a new one on it problem is I Forgot to order gaskets So I got to reuse the gasket If I can All I'm trying to do is just peel that away from that gasket Without ripping the gasket. Yeah, see this I'm gonna put a new one on it, but This is not as bad as I thought it would be It's actually fairly decent I mean since I've got a new one out here That's pretty pliable so Hmm. Yeah, that's pretty weird. It's a little different, but it's okay as long as it goes on there So I can reuse this if you don't scratch them up or anything or bend them or crack them They won't leak. They'll be fine. This one looks okay. All right. Let's see. What's under here? Not too bad Let's go ahead Tell you what, we are going to go ahead and clean it. Now here is my This is what they are Orgodes eBay I do believe Off of a store on eBay. I can't remember the name of the store. I'd put a link, but just look it up There it is. There's a set of 10 of them with cake. All right. It was $9 free shipping now Yeah, I don't know why the guys are saying You know on on that form I went to you can't you can't find them They won't let you do it because they don't want amateurs working on their stuff and It's just not the case For this set here, like I said, it was nine bucks. All right now It's um It's crazy because wish, you know, everyone knows about wish is cheap stuff It just takes forever to get to you. Well, here's the thing the same exact set without Without the the case there was 10 of them, but there's no case 15 bucks and it wasn't going to be until February 18th to March 20 something. So Screw that. So like this as you can see If I can get my camera to look at this, right? See they're splined you see them splines There you go, say they're splined so I need to I've got little pictures on them So I need to find the one with a whole bunch of splines. It should say There it is. This is it here. So it gives you a little picture So it says splined. It's got a whole bunch of come on focus It's got a whole bunch of little splines out. There you go And I don't know if yeah, see the splines in there See if that fits And it does okay now some of these Guys, I'm gonna tell you about these Some of these are a little different on these here. So I'm gonna take one out like this It's the furthest right from Fuel tube and see there's a little little piece of plastic. I see it and these springs they keep them from Adjusting I guess you could say See if these are the same Okay, they look like they're the same Except for This one's got the deal that came out with it, but I'm still want to set them in this container One on the rates for the one on right and one's on the left for the one on the left And Here's our springs a little like that. I'm just gonna set them there for now Now I need to I need to know if There is one of them things Down in here that didn't come out Because if there is Chances or that carburetor cleaner may Screw it up Yes, it's down in there. They make a tool to get these out I'm not sure how I'm gonna get that one out But we will Show you on the Spring it does not need to go in the cleaner This does not need to go in the cleaner or pin does not need to go in the cleaner This does not need to go in the cleaner as you can see it's clean and plus got that rubber tip that can get screwed up. Let's see if this is Remember the one had that that screen in it. This one does not have that. Okay, so This is the idle adjustment So I'm gonna take this out nice and clean basket. Let's take this off of here Carburetor doesn't look all that bad. I don't know why I'd be having issues like that unless it's this This thing but they seem to be So I'm not I'm not sure I'd say just one of the little passages may have a slight clog to it now now granted I didn't try to adjust it because it sounded real good So I thought well, I'm not even gonna try to adjust it. So let's see the So the gasket part See the lines in the gasket because of this The lines on here. So that's telling us the gas will go down like this Okay, so I'm just gonna set that over there I can put that in there So if there's anything else we can take out. I'm not messing with the butterflies You should never have to mess with them butterflies if you got a mess with the butterflies there's other issues There's the choke Full choke half choke wide open choke white open throttle see is wide open throttle right there No more no less. That's why those are on. Okay, so Blow through okay, so these are pretty clear kind of curious how I'm gonna get that piece of piece of Plastic or rubber out of here. I should say rubber. It's not really plastic plastic I got a little piece of wire here What I'm gonna do is get it just where it'll go in there and then once it goes in It may catch and pull it up out I don't see I got you in close because I want you to see what I'm doing But maybe I get you in a little too close hopefully That will squeeze into it Hook it and bring it out if I don't launch you to cross my shop. Okay. See it's starting to come out there Sit down in there. It's kind of on the crooked side There you go See that So let's try that again. So let's go ahead put this back on here. Just like that. Okay So it looks like the other one. I'm still gonna keep them left or right Like that now these I can put in a park washer And I think I'm pretty much I've pretty much got old plastic off of here. Well, not pretty much I do let's put it into our At a late start today monkeys home. She's tired. I Was gonna set up today, but it was supposed to rain and it hasn't rained yet. So it kind of obsessed me But I did set up to sell for was it Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Tuesday, I did do six days in a row. She says that's enough All right, who am I to argue right? Okay, so now Okay, we got this little screw where the thing go What the stall? Okay, this goes for the what you call it? I guess what could what also could be happening. I should have ordered some of these too But these they go bad but not as often as As these diaphragms do see now that that's pretty good diaphragm I will say this diaphragm to put it in something just to test Before we you know put a new one in on something see that's Let's feel pretty good. I'm not gonna mess with that. I don't think that was the issue although it could have been I don't think it was so I Think there may have been a piece of dirt in there. It could have just needed to adjust it, but that's okay I wanted to do Carburetor cleaning so let's back you the rest of the way out here So I did I did get it cleaned out. You don't see any of the Metal shavings in it anymore. What I want to do is I'm gonna set this I'd like to keep it from Touching clear down the bottom if I could because that's where everything goes, but since it's clean. I'm not gonna worry about it Get it down in there. I'm just gonna put my lid on or looking at 245 want to come back. Oh And about an hour. I think because it's carburetor is not that bad. I've got the air compressor I had it fired up. It's up to 140 psi See that needs to be clean, but I'm not going to soak it in there because you're not supposed to Parts in and although I have done it. I think you seen me do it on the last one Didn't hurry anything, but I do have a monkey box for me that will be cleaning We'll just spray a little bit on here. Maybe even just blowed out with compressed air But anyway the compress my pressers ready to go It's got a knock in it. I don't know. I don't think it's in The compressor head itself compressor motor. I don't think that's the issue I'm not sure where the knock's coming from but anyway I'll be getting her dads and bring it out here. It's a pretty decent one I don't know if it's 140 psi or not, but if it's not I'll make it 140 psi I'll just crank her all the way up and anyway. Yeah, I see so that's Yeah, see that doesn't look see how nice and whoops liable that is That's what they're supposed to be like. I don't think there's but like I said, I'll save that one But this is is an example of an old one here Now the gasket's good on this one So we will be saving the gasket Because I have more carburetors to do This is out of an old carburetor that I had replaced the whole carburetor a couple old carburetors But I save them for shit like this Now yours may differ See how that one shaped The new one's kind of it that doesn't really matter as long as whoops See this kind of and this one's a little different on the side, but You can see the holes will line up if them holes line up We will be putting the new one in I will save this gasket, but yeah, as you can tell see it's good there sticking up there like that and this one just flops around see And that one don't But all right, so we'll be back here in about an hour. Like I said, it's About 257 or uh 347 349 So we'll come back 249 we'll come back to 349. All right guys Hang tight All right guys, we're back 15 minutes. I let it soak for an hour Head and blew everything out with compressed air I got this looking all clean pretty nice This is all cleaned up nice and neat So what we're looking pretty good cleaned out there the best it's going to get to reassemble this All right, so we're going to start With our do this now Feeling in my right hand, but that's okay. What this um What this diaphragm does now, this is the old one This right here and that goes up and now Opens and closes when it needs fuel Pushes down like that which opens that needle valve It comes back up which closes the needle valve. Okay I thought this didn't have a one of those screens in it, but I was looking on the wrong end and there it is It does have a screen in it. So but the screen looks good. Everything's uh all blown out nice and neat Pretty good. So let's go ahead. We're going to put our diaphragm on here. Which should go just like Just like that seeing these Right here close when they need to open and close This is going to go on this side just like that Because uh this end here. That's where you're That's where you're for adjusting your idle. Maybe we should just Boom flip this over how flat that is all it's not Cock-eyed like if you get it like that, that's not right. So okay now Put the screw in as you can see this is a wall bro. It's upside down, but it is a wall bro carburetor and I cannot find which is the phillips on guys. I got a Memory carb link goes down. I said this went Yeah mixture screws Go in which is right there So that goes like that This really doesn't make any difference. I'm just used to doing it with wheels fly wheels It's just anything that spins like that. I got used to doing that I got into that habit. So now I just kind of kind of what I do Something like this. It's not necessary or preference. I guess what this does is This will hold adjusting Your mixtures low and high mixture there. Can you see the h and l right? I think that and I've kept our left and right Though they are the same Just uh I'm out. So that's the way I'm putting them back in. I have an issue with this. It looks like On me. So let's pull this out. I done screwed up the whole carburetor So I do not want to do that start this one first. It feels good. They should be straight across I'm just going to take them till they touch But they call naturally touch so you don't want to like tighten it like you're tightening a screw There it just bottomed out. You'll feel it touch Okay, same over this one take these out one turn So I know about where that is. So right there. So there's about a half a turn All right there Okay, so let's make sure this is in okay Same way. That's about a turn. That should be enough to get us running. Okay Now let's put our this like that. Now what that does it's got that uh my screwdriver What that does is it's it's like a V And then as you screw this end it opens this up it pushes that away and then as you back it out It closes it. So maybe you can see right here As I'm screwing that in now I'll screw it out And that gap will go away just want a little bit of gap through there just enough All right, just like that Now it's time to put the carburetor together Okay, so that's what we're going to do next make sure I'm not forgetting anything This is going to be so this is how the carburetor is going to go. So let's get our choke Let's get it put back just push right in there I just want to make sure that fuel line is not going to be in the way of the throttle linkage I'm going to go ahead and put this yeah, I see something's mining up. So it's probably yeah It's that fuel line. So let's all right. So we're going to run it up behind Let's go ahead and pull this off for a second Some of these are bent pretty much the same I'll put it on Because you don't want that coming off where you got a problem. You'll fill this up with fuel just like that 10 millimeter or 5 16ths These don't get tight enough where you got to worry about stripping it out. It will be fine Terrel terro dactyl. Terrel fixes all check his channel out There's a lot of this stuff as like he says it's not the space shuttle Things are not like carburetors on cars. There's no Like intermediate throttle because you're either wide open or your island wide open or island. You're not just like, you know Half, you know half throttle. You're not going to have throttle this thing You go to cut you're going to open it up. It's these carburetors don't have to be as persnickety as they do On a car. So there's that Prizes in there from where this is at. Also on these I want to tell you the t Some of those will have an eye that one has a t for throttle And then you got your l for low and your h for high and grab my jacket. Let's take this outside There's nothing Should the choke is working I'm going to put some fuel in it get outside and we'll uh these caps. Okay See this is a 40 to 1 mix right now these caps if you notice They're at an angle. Okay Now the reason why that is you guys know if you use these That one's the same way for your bar oil if you use these sometimes are real hard to get off That is so you can put if I'm a strict screwdriver Your screwdriver in there or your little tool Some of them's got the little tool that you can adjust the bar Take the straight edge For now as you notice it's made so you can't tighten it it wants to come up out So it's made so you can use that fuel down in here Make sure that I'm using this stuff here I love this stuff. There's no ethanol in it. So say it's 40 40 to 1 or 50 to 1 Anything I put it in Let's wipe this funnel out. So there's a little bit of dirt in your funnels out And all let's go outside start this up and adjust the carburetor Okay, let's see if this thing will start up and run. I've got me An assortment of tools up there just in case I got open the choke And it should let's take care of that real quick Then we'll try to cut a piece of wood. This is that tool. I was telling you about if you loosen these two They're different on some of them are really big Loosen this nut or this screw a little bit You'll see that bar dropping down. So let's tighten her up a little bit more looser because sometimes they will Tighten up and sometimes they'll they'll loosen up. So Usually they'll loosen up. Let's give that a shot and see what happens Adjust the carburetor a little bit and then I'll be back with you. I'm just going to take it outside and And hose it off and clean it up. It's got a place for an extra spark plug This is where the t-handle goes if I come in and monkey so graciously put me an old towel Since she bought new ones on my chair for me, isn't that awesome? Okay, so stuff that's supposed to go here. I don't have that stuff But you know, I will give them the t-handle maybe an extra spark plug, but You know, I mean for 50 bucks. Come on, right? So I'm going to take this out and hose it off I may spray some of this on it and I'll show it to you once I get it all cleaned off and I'll give you our closing thoughts All right guys, here it is all cleaned up. I gave him an extra spark plug. It is a good plug It's used But it is a good plug. I've got it It's not looking like brand new, but you know, I mean For 50 or 60 bucks, you know, I'm probably going to put 65 on it and I'll come down but I won't take any less than 50 hell they want 20 bucks just for these These boxes Used I wouldn't if I had an extra case. I'd probably sell for 10, but I'm different I'm not out to get rich off of somebody So let's put the saw in there So first we put our sleeve on there. This is an 18 inch cut wipe it down again to tomorrow Before I sell it it's presentable close this up lock thing for it, but Like I said, it's not it's not supposed to be it's used if it was like brand new or instead of 50, right? But these ones aren't the ones you can buy because those are the poles you can buy a pole and saw 400 bucks on sale sometimes This is a craftsman. I'll look it up. Maybe I'll ask more. I don't know. I'll see what they're selling for it That's another thing a lot of people go well, they're selling on ebay for this amount I'm like, are they selling for that or asking for that? I look for what was sold, you know what I mean And then go from there and I'll beat anybody's prices You know this saw is paid for it's it's one of the ones I got remember off that guy when I got the blower and The weedier with all the attachments it came from him This is the main thing I went to look at he had 20 bucks on it Ended up buying everything for 50 well That's all cost nothing. I already made a profit off just the weed eater and the attachments The blower I've got nothing in I've got nothing in any of this stuff. So All right, there you guys go This is weird monkey made me suffer tonight. She was off today and she took it easy all day That was good to see I took it easy for a while with her until my New frames came in metering diaphragms And then I came out and got to work. So it's getting dark out now I'm gonna pick up some of my tools. I don't know if I'm gonna do the blower or not. I had some issues with it It was running fine Took it out to sell it to start it next morning wouldn't start wouldn't start all day long. It's flooding out End of the day. I pulled it one time fired right up. So I don't know. I think it's in a metering I think it's this thing stuck in the down position Which should be causing it to get too much fuel, but I'll have to check it out. I don't nothing to do that tonight Uh, but I might we'll see. So anyway guys, thanks for watching. I appreciate it There you go craftsman chainsaw 18 inch cut 40 cc Good running saw All right. Shea bearer the myth man legend. Thanks for hanging out in the garage with me and doing some wrenching All right, we'll see you guys soon. Bye. Bye. Take care
